- Description: Online version of original print edition of the Special Publication of the J.L.B. Smith Institute of Ichthyology; No. 25 , Two new species of percophid fishes are described from off Natal, South Africa, Pteropsaron heemstrai from two specimens dredged at 143 m and Osopsaron natalensis from three specimens dredged at 100 m. This is the first record of a member of the subfamily Hemerocoetinae from the western Indian Ocean. The two new species belong to the lineage of closely related genera Acanthaphrites Gunther, Pteropsaron Jordan and Snyder, Osopsaron Jordan and Starks, Spinapsaron Okamura and Kishida, and Branchiopsaron McKay. A specimen of Squamicreedia obtusa Rendahl, previously known only from the damaged holotype, is described from Western Australia. It is postulated that the genera Squamicreedia Rendahl, Enigmapercis Whitley (whose range is extended to Western Australia), and Matsubaraea Taki form a closely related group in Hemerocoetinae.
